Morocco blocks migrants' Ceuta attempt
Moroccan security forces successfully thwarted an attempt by hundreds of migrants from sub-Saharan African countries who had taken refuge in mountainous areas outside the city of Fnideq, to organize an illegal crossing into the Spanish city of Ceuta. The operation took place amidst heightened security alertness, with forces positioned on main roads and around the border area by land, sea, and air, utilizing boats and drones to prevent mass movements. These measures came after previous attempts in July, during which tens of thousands managed to reach Ceuta by swimming and hiking. These efforts are part of Morocco's broader initiatives to control migrant flows and secure its borders.
